“So accommodating and friendly. This was our first time boarding, and pretty instantly we knew our pup was in good hands! The pictures were so appreciated, and we’re incredibly grateful for the care our dog was given.”
“Hanelle has to be the nicest person but on top of that the best person to trust your pet with. She went above and beyond special care for our little Ginger and spoiled her with homemade biscuits on top of all the love she gave her. She exercised her regularly and listened to any additional information we gave her! Certainly recommend her and will be using her again”
“Carla was a wonderful host for Smokey, instead of coming home stressed out from the kennel (cage), he came home happy & clearly well taken care of!!! Ty so much Carla! James & Smokey Bear”
“Grace was awesome! She took amazing care of my 2 dogs and made sure they felt at home in her home with her family. They got extra snuggles, slept in the bed like they love to and had a great outdoor space to play in. She sent updates daily with lots of pictures. I will be using grace again for my next trip! She even made them special treats to come home with.”
“We absolutely love Debra and Vic . They are absolutely wonderful. We received daily updates and pictures daily . Our Freddie has a wonderful stay . Would highly recommend and definitely plan to use them again! There home is great and we felt very comfortable leaving our Freddie there we know he was treated good and was loved !”
“Daisy came home tired and happy from her overnight with Jake and Mischa! They sent lots of pictures and were very communicative. We’ll ve using them again for sure.”
“Abner was great! We just moved to the state and had no clue where to start with a dog sitter, but we felt comfortable leaving our pup with Abner very quickly. Very kind, and he clearly loves dogs. Our girl is pretty nervous but he took the time to make sure she was comfortable and she ended up having a great time.”
“Sandra provided daily updates about my puppy, which gave us so much peace of mind. Button did really well during her stay and even seemed to make some new friends. Sandra also gave her a bath, which we truly appreciated. We are very grateful for the wonderful care and would absolutely book again next time we travel.”
“Kim was very quick to respond to me whenever I wanted to check in and see how Ryder was doing. She was very friendly and welcoming. She sent me pictures and made me feel comfortable that my baby was in good hands. I would highly recommend her. This was my first time using a dog sitter and I am very pleased with the entire experience. Thank you again Kim for everything. I would use her again if I need a sitter.”
“First time using Rover and super apprehensive… but Alexis made the experience of leaving my puppy behind super comforting. I was kept updated on Khloe and what she was doing. Comments throughout the day which I appreciated. I definitely recommend Alexis and will use her again and again.”
“Lin took great care of Mylo. She is very attentive and caring. Mylo was well cared for and content when I picked him up. Lin sent me videos as well and had Mylo all ready and out front when I picked him up!! Even carried his gear to the car for me!!”
“Monica was a great person very caring very reliable with my kitten. I appreciated how she updated me with pictures and also helpful with ideas to take care of my kitten. I highly recommend her and family!”
“Thank you for treating Rehn like your own. You did wonderful with him especially since he is a temperamental husky. We will definitely have Rehn stay with you when we go to see our son. Their kindness made leaving Rehn easier. I cannot thank then enough.”
“Sara was wonderful. Our first time using a dog sitter and I was anxious about the experience. Would the boys behave, or would the sitter really give them attention? Well yes and definitely yes. The experience was great for us and the doggos. Our dogs are a large breed and a giant breed. Sara didn't have any qualms about their sizes and we were able to relax and enjoy a weekend away. Would absolutely use Sara's services again. Highly recommend.”
“We recently had the pleasure of having Nicolas care for our beloved dog, Mazzie, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From start to finish, it was clear that our pup was in great hands. Mazzie went on long walks, had incredible play time with their dog Sinatra, and we received tons of wonderful pictures, making our time away. It was evident that they were genuinely passionate about animals, and Mazzie was instantly comfortable, which gave us such peace of mind. Overall, we couldn’t recommend this pet sitter highly enough. They treated Mazzie as if she were their own, and we will definitely be using them again in the future. If you’re looking for reliable, compassionate, and attentive care for your furry family member, look no further!”
“Steven is an exceptional dog sitter! He and his wife took care of my Dito, with love, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was top-notch, and he kept me updated on Dito's adventures. Dito was happy, healthy, and well-cared for, and that's all thanks to Steven's dedication. He's trustworthy, reliable, and truly a dog lover. If you need a dog sitter who will treat your pet like family, look no further than Steven. 5 stars and a big paws up from Dito.”

“Madelyn was wonderful and took great care of my fur baby even when my driveway was covered in snow and also helped us out over Christmas! Our cat is a needy boy and usually complains a lot when we leave but he didn’t seem to mind this time. Would definitely recommend!”
“Isabella was wonderful! She stopped over a few days prior to meet and learn about what our pets needed while we were away which I appreciated. We will definitely book her again next time we are out of town!”
About: I grew up in a cat-loving home and have years of experience caring for cats of all personalities, from playful kittens to more independent and senior cats. I understand their routines, behaviors, and unique needs, including feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, and providing a calm, safe environment. I’m comfortable giving cats space when they need it while also offering attention, affection, and enrichment when they’re social. My goal is always to keep them comfortable, stress-free, and cared for just like they are at home.
About: I've taken care of dogs for my friends and family for over 10 years. My sister, my bosses and different friends all trust me for a few reasons. First, I love animals and have a good rapport with them. Second, I am clean and keep my word when I agree to show up at a certain time. People recognize this and trust me to show up. Lastly, I am a calm person who brings a tranquil energy. Each animal has their own personality which I respect and learn to work with, and some have more challenging behaviors then others. Some are not good with other dogs or cats, some aren't good with kids, some are timid and need a lot of warming up to and some are pretty much good with everyone. I have worked with animals who have their own quirks and special needs (like medicines at meal times). I have been a traveler for many years, so house sitting/pet sitting for friends around the country has become a part of my life. These days I run a business that has been picking up, so I am not always available, but I keep my calendar open incase I can work it out to spend time with some animals. I currently work several jobs and try to fit Rover requests in when I get them. My girlfriend suggested Rover because she's noticed when I pet sit for people, I really love being around the animals. We can't have animals where we rent so this is a fun and rewarding job. I can be strict or loose with animals depending on what the owners perfer. I've worked with pets who owners never really train the animals, they just love them to bits. I've also worked with pets who have a more strict approach. I enjoy working with all situations! In the past I lived in my friends house while they were away; they left me a lot of notes on how to care for, feed, walk, give medicine to their 4 animals and watering dozens of house plants. It was a great time. Since joining Rover I've met some great animals, and even though I have a busy work life, I keep my profile open because I really enjoy animals and hope to meet more through here when I can.
About: I love taking care of animals. Animal energy is something I love having in my life. I have had dogs and cats since I was born. Now I have my very own Border Collie named Iris who I love with all my heart. I was always interested in animal care bathing walking cooking my own dog special food. I recently made the decision to leave my place of employment after 25 years. So now I can commit to animal care as much or as little as I can. I don't have a routine yet but hopefully I will establish one soon. I have done numerous overnights with up to 4 dogs. I ask the owners for a printed copy of each dogs habits, routine and exercise preferences. Also if the dog has any leash or food aggression.
“Kim was a great sitter for my special needs cat. She gave him the care and attention he needed and made sure I was updated on whether he’d gone to the bathroom. I also appreciate her willingness to care for him over the holidays - it was a huge help since we could not be home with him!”
About: I am currently in training to become a certified dog trainer. I am able to offer basic and puppy training at this time. I have around 18 years of pet care experience. I have cared for dogs and cats in the past, including elderly and ill pets. I can administer any necessary medications, both oral and injectable. I have also worked for a prominent doggy day care that has locations across the country. I have an acre of fenced in yard for the dogs to run around and get out all of their energy, so you can rest assured they'll be having the time of their life here! I work from home, so I am available whenever you need. I love to spend time with dogs and can be there when you can't!
About: I have been house sitting since I was 14 years old. From homes with 2 large puppies to homes with 4 dogs and 7 cats ranging in ages. I love animals and spend a lot of time working with animals with my sister who is Veterinarian. I am a full time nursing student with a full time job. I am completely available for your pet sitting needs from Friday through Monday. Your pets will have my complete attention when in my care. Not only will I tend to their needs, I will play with them, and show them love.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for shy, timid pets who need gentle reassurance. I’ve fostered 60+ rescue dogs and have years of experience helping anxious pups feel safe, calm, and cared for. My focus is overnight, in-home sitting so your pets can stay in their normal routine—sleeping in their own beds, in the place they feel most comfortable (no boarding stress). I am happy to send photos and updates of your pets while you're away so you can enjoy your travels knowing they are safe, happy, and receiving plenty of love. While you’re away, I also treat your home with respect and care: bringing in mail/packages, rotating lights, watering plants, and keeping things tidy. Expect reliable communication, photo updates, and calm, steady care—walks, playtime, enrichment, snuggles, and support for separation anxiety/routines. I work full time for a nonprofit with some remote work flexibly as needed. My schedule is an 8 hr work day and start and end times can be adjusted as needed. I am experienced with crate training, basic obedience, special diets, walking, mental stimulation and calming techniques and lots of love, affection and snuggles. Services can be modified for the specific needs of your dog(s) or cat(s).
About: I've owned and cared for dogs since I was three years old. I've always loved them! I've worked at a dog boarding kennel for over a year now and I love it! Before that, I worked at a farm with lots of different animals and I've watched/walked dogs on the side for a long time now. I also have experience with cats as well! I'd love to meet your four-legged friends and family! I work part-time at a dog boarding kennel and my hours are different sometimes. I'm either working 7am - 12:30pm OR 3pm - 7pm. I usually work the afternoon shift (3 - 7). Since I have worked with animals a lot, especially dogs, I definitely consider myself pretty educated. Like I said, I do not offer boarding in my own home but I am more than happy to come to yours and offer my services! If you have any questions about anything, always feel free to contact me! :)
“Tammie was an absolute lifesaver while I was on vacation! She came three times a day to care for my cat, including administering oral medication, which can be a challenge—but she handled it with total professionalism and care. She was always on time, incredibly communicative, and sent regular updates that really helped me relax while I was away. When our flight was unexpectedly delayed, she didn’t hesitate to make additional last-minute visits to make sure my cat was safe and comfortable. Her flexibility and dedication truly went above and beyond. It’s such a relief to know my pet is in such capable and compassionate hands. I will 100% be booking with Tammie again and can’t recommend her highly enough!”
About: I have taken care of close friends and families pets for years and I have decided to expand and see if anyone else needs care for their animals! I have plenty of experience working with animals. I started out as a farm aid at Turtleback zoo a couple years ago and left to go work with marine mammals in Florida. When I came back to NJ I went to Cape May and worked as a full time seasonal animal keeper. After my 6 months were up I went back to Turtleback zoo as a Relief Keeper. I left the zoo field December 2021 and started working part time at a local vet clinic where I work with all size dogs and cats. I know how to give medications also if your dog or cat have any special needs! I currently work full time, first shift for a laboratory. I also work part time at a vets office but when I am dog sitting I do not just do that your pets have more of my attention and are my priority. If I were to stay at your house I can walk your dog around your neighborhood or take them on local hiking trails! Whatever works best! I am here to care for your animals just as I would my own. My dogs Cooper and Ginger are very spoiled and I can guarantee yours will be also! Depending on the needs of your pet will be the deciding factor of our daily routine. We can talk about that more in details if you decide to message me! I have two mini dachshunds that are friendly and love to walk/hike! If your dog is friendly and adventurous I would bring them along for the fun!

About: I'm a natural empath and caretaker with extensive experience in animal care. Growing up, my family always had multiple dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, chickens, and more! My entire life I've always been around animals and taking care of them - I'm frequently called an animal whisperer. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed, and care for their pets since a young age. When I was a senior in High School, I shadowed my neighborhood vet. I've worked professionally for a dog walking company, at a doggy-daycare, with a dog physical therapist, as an animal caretaker at an animal sanctuary, and I've lived on a ranch in Mexico where I cared for animals. I'm committed to providing the highest level of care for your beloved companions! I am very experienced with animals, whether it be sitting, walking, caretaking, puppies, senior care, administering medication, etc. I had two 18-year-old kitties who both passed recently, so I’m very adept with cat care too! My time is extremely flexible and my personal schedule can be made around your pet's needs. I’m currently in a place of transition after a long spiritual awakening, tons of self-healing, and recent grieving after losses in my family. I am responsible, reliable, and have great attention to detail. If I'm left with specific guidelines for how to care for your pet in your home they will be met. If not, I can guarantee your pet will still be in great hands! I'm an extremely intuitive caretaker and my experience with animals will ensure all your loved one's needs are fully met.

I’m a stay at home mom so i have all the time to take care of your pups. I have 3 friendly pups to keep your pups company at all times. They can play in the back yard as well with me supervising.
“Scotty was great with Nola! It was a last-minute booking and despite the snow falling, he met us outside. Showcased the area Nola would be, and sent pictures of her comfortable! He was super friendly and accommodating for us, and Nola really loved her time with him!”
About: I have worked with animals for most of my life and have experience caring for a wide range of animals, from dogs to horses. I have previously worked at a dog boarding facility for two years, where I handled daily care, feeding, cleaning, and exercise. I have have also grown up on a horse farm that has a wide variety of animals. I am comfortable working with both small and large animals and have experience administering medications, including insulin injections. I currently own both a dog and a horse, so animal care is a part of my everyday life. I also have a friendly dog in the home who enjoys playing with other dogs, which helps create a comfortable and social environment for pets in my care. I am patient, reliable, and passionate about making animals feel safe, cared for, and comfortable. I currently work remotely, Monday to Friday, from the comfort of my own home. I am currently working from home during the week so I have plenty of time for outside play and walks as well as constant supervision While my yard is not fenced in, I provide long walks around the lake and possibly even swimming for those warm days and water loving dogs.
About: I will give your dog(s) my undivided attention. They will be fed and taken for walks. I will engage with them throughout the day, as I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I will care for them just like they were my own pet. Being a dog owner myself, I understand how much they mean to their families. In case of an emergency at home or work, I will provide the necessary care for your dogs. I have a unique bond with every dog I meet and truly enjoy their company, ensuring they receive plenty of affection. In the past, I have cared for my family's dogs, feeding and walking them nearly every day. I am knowledgeable about how to handle dogs safely. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to dog-sit and walk the dogs entrusted to my care. Pet caring is one of my passion because they bring so much joy to our lives. With this being said after work I do appreciate the love my fur babies give me. I love to play and run with fur babies and I also get my weekly exercise in! I have a yard that they can run freely in. They will have access to my balcony for when they need cooling and some quiet.
About: Hi! I’m an experienced pet sitter and dog walker based out of Newton, NJ. Animals are my life! I’ve been working full time in petcare for close to four years, and as a caretaker for many years. Before going into dogcare full time, I was most recently working as a nursing home aid, and CHHA. Before that, I worked with farm animals at the Turtle Back Zoo, and volunteered with the cat adoption agency, ‘Kitty Kind.’ I’ve had and taken care of my dogs, as well as others, ever since I was a little girl. I missed working with our four-legged friends, and I’m very happy to have returned to this fuzzier kind of work. Right now at home, I’ve got two Malamute Labrador mixes. Needless to say, I do have experience handling big dogs, though I love the little ones, too! I am available for overnights, in most cases, so long as I’m not on schedule for another client. My main duty right now is taking care of my animals at home, so I’m also happy to take on whatever odd shifts people may need help with. How I would care for a client’s fuzzy friend would be an entirely personalized experience. I want to know how YOU want them taken care of, and what you are comfortable with and looking for. Then, I will enthusiastically and reliably fill that role, whilst ensuring a safe and protective experience for your pet.
“They were warm and welcoming from the beginning. Emma seemed comfortable wandering around their home and being with them. They saved me just by being available on Thanksgiving! I would definitely use them again!!”
About: I have taken care of pets my whole life. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and a chinchilla. My friends made a joke that my house was a zoo with all the animals we had. I love animals and I can’t imagine my life without a furry pet. I’m home for the summer before my job starts in September. Free during the weekends or weekdays for boarding, house sitting, or walking. I’m very flexible for hours. My dog is very good off leash in our backyard. We take her on hikes all the time to tire her out. My cats are older and have to take medication but they love snuggling up with my dog.
About: I am a lover of all animals and have had a large percentage of them as pets currently and in my past. From the usual dogs and cats to chickens, lizards, parrots and everything in between. Right now I have three rescue dogs (Brussels griffons), rescue parrots (African grey and Senegal), eight chickens and a couple of tanks of fish. I would love to bring my experience to your home to make sure your pets get the attention they need during the day when their parents are at work. I look forward to bringing the same love and patience that I have showered my own pets, past and present, to yours! I’m currently open from 9-3 during the week Weekends I could be available for in house boarding for small dogs and other animals as needed. I have a large yard that contains a fully fenced in portion with three friendly and playful Brussels griffons. Otherwise I can pop in to your house and spend however much time you need to break up your workday for your pets.
About: As a doctor, I’ve spent years caring for people of all ages and I bring that same compassion, patience, and attention to detail to the pets I look after. What sets me apart is my medical background and calm, caring approach to both routine and unexpected situations. I’m comfortable helping with pets who need a bit of extra attention, like seniors, those on medication, or anxious animals, always ensuring they feel safe and cared for. I’ve been caring for dogs since I was about 10 years old, when I started helping my neighbors with their pets while they were away. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments — from playful puppies who need consistency and training, to older dogs who require gentler care and medication on schedule. In the past, I’ve also trained many dogs, focusing on consistency, positive reinforcement, and gentle play to help them learn and have fun. Whether your pet needs structured walks, quiet companionship, or a steady hand during medication time, I’ll treat them like one of my own family members. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine. I’m an early riser and make time every day for walks, play, and check-ins. My work schedule is flexible, allowing me to plan visits around each pet’s needs—whether it’s morning exercise, midday drop-ins, or evening companionship. Caring for animals is a relaxing and rewarding part of my week. I treat every home and pet with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow your instructions carefully, maintain a clean environment, and keep pets safe with close supervision indoors and secure leashes outdoors. I focus on helping pets feel comfortable and calm, especially when their families are away, so they always feel cared for and at ease.
“I loved the daycare for our dog (LOVE). Sandra and her husband took very good care of her and treated her like their own and made her feel like home the whole entire time there. I was at ease knowing she was in good hands and loved that they have been in touch the whole time sending photos and videos of her at all times. She looked so happy and not crying like she usually does away from us, I would 100% recommend them both. I truly say they both are to trust and are great dog people to all because of how they were with mine. I will definitely be booking with them again for sure ! thank you again for everything 😌 very satisfied !”

About: I work from home and have a sweet 2 yr old Frenchton (half French Bulldog, half Boston Terrier), and we would love to take care of your pet! We will fill your pet’s day with playing, long walks, snacks, naps and lots of love! I’ve owned at least one dog all of my life and I know how challenging it can be to find trusting, reliable dog sitters & I’m happy to help with boarding or drop ins for walking, feeding, etc. My dog would love to have another dog to play with, walk with, nap with, she desperately wants a dog bestie❤️, we would love the opportunity to love and care for your pet!! I work full time from home, dog walks will be 4-5 times a day or on command. I currently walk a total of 3 to 4 miles a day with my dog but we can customize that for whatever pet we are lucky enough to take care of! My home is very dog friendly with dog beds located throughout, a warm fireplace to nap in front of, and a surplus of pet toys.
“Madelyn has been very communicative and supportive while working with Dio! I greatly appreciate her patience and kindness when working with Dio who is nervous around new people. I will definitely be working with her again!”
“I had never left my dogs in the care of someone else, and took a chance on Kelly because I liked her when we met. I was gone for an entire week so I was so apprehensive. She exceeded all my expectations! She was kind and sent me messages about my dogs and cats to keep me in the loop about their week. I loved the pictures of them every day, and seeing how much time she spent with them. She is very loving and so thoughtful. Do not hesitate to hire her to care for your fur children. She treats them like her own family.”
“Matt was fantastic with my dog all week! He was attentive to his needs, took him on great walks, and always made sure he got his treats. I really appreciated the daily updates and pictures, such a great way to stay connected while I was working. Highly recommend Matt and would definitely book with him again in the future!”
“We had such a great experience with our Rover sitter! They took wonderful care of our dogs and kept us updated with pictures throughout their walk, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We would absolutely book again and definitely recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring for their pets!”
“Isabella came on super short notice and did a great job with my Rottweiler mix. She even came over within a couples hours of booking to meet and greet prior to the appointment. Thank you!”
About: Hi! My name is Samantha, and I’m a dependable, caring animal lover with experience caring for pets of all sizes and personalities. I understand that pets are family, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, cleaning up after pets, and giving lots of attention and affection. I’m patient, trustworthy, and attentive to each pet’s individual needs and routines. Whether your pet loves long walks, cuddles on the couch, or extra playtime, I’m happy to provide care that keeps them happy and comfortable in their environment. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible daily schedule that allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, walks, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m home most of the time, which means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods and will receive consistent care, comfort, and interaction. I can easily accommodate feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and extra cuddle or playtime. I enjoy keeping pets active, comfortable, and feeling at home while their owners are away. I have one friendly dog at home and a secure fenced-in yard where pets can safely play and get exercise. I can provide supervised outdoor time, walks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. If needed, I am also able to crate dogs for safety, comfort, or to maintain their normal routine. I always work to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and as stress-free as possible while they are away from home.

About: I've been taking care of dogs since I was 10! I have experience with all different breeds, I even have 5 dogs of my own! All breeds are welcome 🤗 I am currently a fully online student and I control my own schedule. My calender is open for whatever days you need! Please feel free to reach out with any questions! 😊 I will not be able to pet sit in my own home, since I have so many animals. However, I am more than happy to care for your pet in your own home, going on walks, bathing, etc.

I have been a traveler for many years, so house sitting/pet sitting for friends around the country has become a part of my life. These days I run a business that has been picking up, so I am not always available, but I keep my calendar open incase I can work it out to spend time with some animals. I currently work several jobs and try to fit Rover requests in when I get them. My girlfriend suggested Rover because she's noticed when I pet sit for people, I really love being around the animals. We can't have animals where we rent so this is a fun and rewarding job. I can be strict or loose with animals depending on what the owners perfer. I've worked with pets who owners never really train the animals, they just love them to bits. I've also worked with pets who have a more strict approach. I enjoy working with all situations! In the past I lived in my friends house while they were away; they left me a lot of notes on how to care for, feed, walk, give medicine to their 4 animals and watering dozens of house plants. It was a great time. Since joining Rover I've met some great animals, and even though I have a busy work life, I keep my profile open because I really enjoy animals and hope to meet more through here when I can.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was about 15 years old. I dog sit for friends and family all the time. Taking care of them and always playing with them. I work a part-time restaurant schedule, which means my calendar is highly flexible. I plan my weekly pet care routine as soon as I get my work schedule, ensuring I have dedicated, uninterrupted blocks of time to feed, walk, and love your pets. When caring for pets in their own home, my absolute priority is maintaining their normal routine to keep them stress-free. I strictly follow your instructions for feeding times, medication, and exercise schedules. During my stay or visits, I focus on giving them plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, and affection so they never feel lonely.I am highly respectful of your space—I keep your home clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. I also provide regular photo and text updates so you always have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe and happy in their favorite environment.

About: I have taken care of dogs since 2019. I watched neighbors dogs while they would go to work or vacation. I have experience with puppies since 2019 also. I work part time. So I have plenty of time to take walks and potty breaks. I usually walk my dog every 2 -4 hours. So I can maintain that schedule. I have reliable transportation and can transport any dogs/ cats for walks in parks etc. I am always available during the week and like keeping busy.
About: I've loved them all. From guinea pigs to rabbits, hamsters and ferrets, parrots and fish, cats and dogs. I have experience with dogs of many breeds, from German shepherds to Chihuahuas, newfoundlands and jack russells. I try and understand every dog breed to understand their unique needs. No dog is the same! But they all love unconditionally, so I try and give them the same. I have some training in puppies and have experience with puppies as well as elders. I've house sat in the pets homes where I know they are comfortable and can have their routines and environments. I just want to give each pet whatever it is they need. I have had pets since I was born, my first dog being a boxer. Almost never without a dog, but certainly never without a pet. Currently I have a german shepherd/collie mix named Blue. Even at six years old, he has the energy of a puppy! We run every day in a field nearby, sometimes visit the dog park, and have frequent visits with his dog friends. Making sure he is happy and healthy is a daily priority in my life. In the clients home, I get in depth information on their pets routines, food schedules and preparations, walking and play time, and whether they are crated or not. I will follow your instructions to a T.

About: I will give your dog(s) my undivided attention. They will be fed and taken for walks. I will engage with them throughout the day, as I genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. I will care for them just like they were my own pet. Being a dog owner myself, I understand how much they mean to their families. In case of an emergency at home or work, I will provide the necessary care for your dogs. I have a unique bond with every dog I meet and truly enjoy their company, ensuring they receive plenty of affection. In the past, I have cared for my family's dogs, feeding and walking them nearly every day. I am knowledgeable about how to handle dogs safely. I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to dog-sit and walk the dogs entrusted to my care. Pet caring is one of my passion because they bring so much joy to our lives. With this being said after work I do appreciate the love my fur babies give me. I love to play and run with fur babies and I also get my weekly exercise in! I have a yard that they can run freely in. They will have access to my balcony for when they need cooling and some quiet.
“We used Morgan, and actually Rover.com, for the first time. My husband dropped off Laska (our hound mix rescue dog), and noticed that she seemed happy to go with Morgan. For us, this is a big deal because she's been through a lot. When we used the kennel Laska would fight us going in, and would come home stressed out and completely out of it. This was not the case after picking up Laska from Morgan's. Laska was clean, happy, and not stressed out! This was a first for her! Laska did have some separation anxiety, so she chewed her bed up. That was our fault because we forgot to tell Morgan about the routine that we have when we leave the house. As a result, we thought Morgan would tell us that she wouldn't watch Laska again, but to our delight, Morgan said she will take her in the future.”
